    Only the paint is unique. The rest is standard on the Sessanta. Thanks for the pics.

    Those wheels are horrible. They look like cheap hubcaps from the 80's.

    I don't get the FXX badge inside? What is the purpose of that? Looks like a cheap add on in my opinion. I'm with you guys too, the wheels are terrible, should have got a better looking rim! But hey, it's only my opinion.

    All Sessantas have a badge from the Ferrari 60th tour. The FXX badge is one such that appears on the baton that went round the world. Dont particularly like the colour or wheels, but if the owner is happy then that is all that matters. I salute him for buying what he wanted as opposed to what will please the masses. Best wheels imho are polished Challenge wheels. Look Ace!

    That is Phil B.'s 612, number 60 of 60. The seats are brown with yellow inserts, the yellow/gold is more vibrant then it appears in these photos. Phil also has the last Enzo imported into the states, and will getting the last Scuderia. It's tradition.

    Yup ...
    Quite strange Sessanta, but I'll wait for better pic before giving my "final" opinion !
    I think that it would have been a lot better with a "normal" two tons division (like Rik and other Sessanta's owner ...).

    I'd have to see a better picture to really see if the colors look okay to me or not.

    Do all Sessantas have the "R" button instead of the little T-handle?

    Given the color combo, if you put this car on the market right now what $ offer would it get? $180K?

    The Sessanta with the FXX-badge was said to be 155221, a European Car in Rosso Rubino & Nero Daytona with full dark grey interior (look at this thread : http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=185066&highlight=sessanta ). Car was shown at the 60 Anni Celebrations in Fiorano. Might it be possible that the Farctory:

    a) replaced the Badge on 155221? If so, which badge has it now?
    b) The Factory has used the FXX-Badge twice?
    c) (most unlikely) The Factory has given 155221 a new "outfit"?

    Have you been able to spot the VIN?

    My money is on B. Somebody else wanted an FXX badge. Or is there some conspiracy here!

    Would leave the question: Are there two FXX-Badges and one 60-Anni-Badge unused or is there a 61st Sessanta? :)

    Sessanta's cry out for a special colour scheme and this one passes with flying colours
